Coinbase launches spending limits and automatic stop features for agent trading

Not investment advice. Muhabbit scores how much a story may matter, not which way to trade.
Coinbase introduced new risk controls for its Coinbase for Agents trading tool, letting users set per-trade caps, 24-hour cumulative volume limits, and automatic stop thresholds tied to portfolio losses. When losses exceed the configured threshold, the agent halts order placement until the user manually re-enables trading in the Coinbase app. Users will also be able to restrict which product categories the agent can trade, a feature marked as coming soon. Coinbase said the controls run on its servers and are managed via its app or web interface, and the agent cannot alter them itself. The move matters because it gives retail users guardrails on autonomous, AI-driven trading, addressing concerns about runaway losses. Next, watch adoption of the agent tool and the rollout of category restrictions.
